Sunny Girl
The Hep Stars Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

She's a sunny girl, a real girl
and no-one can declare
that she's something that I never need
and never want to care for
She's a sunny girl, a real girl,
that's why she's satisfying
She will never ask for anything but you
Ain't that a girl

She's domestic, she is property
she's slim like reed
She's devertin', she is faithful
Ain't that all you need
And I'm souring like a feather
in a world I've just created
for a very simple reason
that is one, she's mine
She's all mine

She's a sunny girl, a real girl
She's a happy and authentic person, not some fake or artificial creation

No one can deny

and I will always care for her


She's a sunny girl, a real girl,
She's a positive and genuine person

In my imagination, I've created a perfect world


for a very simple reason
For the simple reason that she is mine

I feel happy and fulfilled that she belongs to me

Så ung Svenne Hedlund är här.

Att Benny Andersson tycker om barockmusik märks klart och tydligt.
